Autozone. But im telling you againj! dont use nightshade! Use the rustoleum tint spray. they have it at autozone too. Gives it way more of a glossy look!

You must be new to niteshades, and I don't mean that as a slam. I can spray it fully gloss without a problem. They key is to sand the light really good up to around 1200 grit, then use the shades on it

Rustoleum gives a cloudy finish when lit up. I've had both rustoleum and but on my heads and rustoleum looks like craps lit up. Just do the extra work like wetsanding and extremely fine sanding the but and you will have factory paint gloss look I promise. Take the extra time since it is a big investment Ur driving not a 1989 civic lol

Does it dim the HIDs a lot? I want mine black but might do just the inside so my lights stay bright

I was about to smoke mine and called my cousin who is a city cop and he advised me not too because in Ohio you must have two red reflectors visible at all times. Are they still reflective after two coats?
